Where do you want to fly? Virgin thinks it can read your mind

To celebrate the launch of flights to Detroit, Virgin Atlantic joined forces with the magician DMC, the grandson of The Telegraph’s former editor Bill Deedes. All the chosen few had to do was pick at random one of 200 destinations – and hope the magician could read their minds. Watch the video above to find out if he was successful.

DMC, born Drummond Money-Coutts, is the son of Crispin Money-Coutts, 9th Baron Latymer, and his first wife Lucy Deedes, the daughter of Bill Deedes.

Virgin’s flights to Detroit took off on June 1. In partnership with Delta, it now flies to more than 200 US destinations.
